| Served in 1 Wireless, later 13th Signal Regiment from November 1957 to January 1961. I was an operator in the Cipher Office. (WO2 Terry O'Toole and Major McD Glass) Detached to 101 Wireless Troop Langeleben during 1958 (SSM Williams and our driver was Gordon Banks, who married a girl from Konigslutter and left early to play football as a fairly good goalkeeper !! I knew the webmaster Fred Searle. Jack Wilderspin was the RSM. I used to spend a lot of time in the training room up in the ops block during night shifts, using the AR88 and Eddystone 880A. When I went on my Yeoman's course some years later, I passed my morse in the first week at 25 wpm and saved over 200 periods of instruction time! Night shifts in the OPs Block !! Left in 1961 and completed 29 years in the Corps in 1984 as a Major (Traffic Officer) but never served again with anyone from the Y service days.

I have browsed through the "as they are now" pictures and was delighted to see that Ted Haslem is a member of your association. He was a mojor influence during my posting to the regiment.
Thanks for bringing back some excellant memories. |

| I never served with 13 SR, being the other sort of EWOp, but I do recognise a number of names and faces from 9 SR and, before that, Garats Hay. I have just lost over an hour in misty-eyed nostalgia and find it hard to accept that it was all three decades ago. If anyone remembers, get in touch - especially 'Butch' McCarthy, if you're out there... |

| Have been keeping tabs on all the Spec Op sites and its is great to see names of old colleagues and been in touch with a few. Dave Cleggett last remember seeing u at 9 Sigs 1975 just before being sent to 223 Sigs Winchester for my last year. Am in touch with my good fried Al Thompson who keeps me in the know about some of my old mates and has even put me up a couple of times when I hve been able to make it to the Barrow reunion. Agree with ur sentiments Dave good friends and memories not forgotten. Regards To All Bill Reid |
